We supported the team in engaging the people of Preston to open up conversation on how Preston's Shaping Something Special!

Manchester Museum  

As part of Manchester Museum’s ambitious ‘Hello Future’ project, their team and Wilson Mason Architects engaged the Artistry House to deliver a selection of crucial non-gallery spaces. The objective for the project was to create a visual through-line across these spaces, showcasing high impact objects, whilst being mindful of the functionality, visitor experience and flow. 

Animate  

Working with Preston City Council and key stakeholders, we helped develop the ethos and proposition for their new leisure destination in the heart of the city centre. Beginning with the naming process, we crafted a positioning that went beyond just being a venue. It was about creating a vibrant cultural and social hub—an opportunity to bring people together and add real value to the community.

Rise

It’s always good when the client has a great vision for a project, and Rise were a shining example of having done their homework. Our role was to help them to curate that vision and position their brunch cafe concept through brand and interior design

Worden Hall

In 2022 we worked with Wilson Mason architects and South Ribble council to turn the historic landmark, Worden Hall, into a community focussed cafe and events venue. Starting with the overall project vision we developed a concept focussed on bringing the outside. 

Paint the Town  

Arts organisation Left Coast were looking for a way to visualise a bespoke Johnstone's commercial paint range in a way that would bring the palette to life. Based on an original commission by Laura Shevaun Green, each colour is inspired by real stories from Blackpool's people and places so it was crucial that this sense of character and place came through.

Preston Narrative

The Preston Narrative Project, in collaboration with the Preston Partnership, was an initiative aimed at developing a strategic marketing proposition for Preston. Launched in December 2019, the project began with a six-month "listening" phase, engaging community spokespeople from across Preston to gather authentic insights into the city's character and aspirations.

Preston Guild

The Preston Guild is a historic civic celebration held every 20 years, making it a unique event in the UK. Bringing together people from across the city and beyond, it’s a major cultural moment for Preston. Our role was to support key stakeholders in developing the brand, collateral, website, and event signage, ensuring a strong and cohesive identity for this once-in-a-generation celebration.

The Beyond the Castle project was a community-driven initiative in Lancaster focused on revitalising the historic green space between Lancaster Castle, the Priory, and the River Lune. Aiming to transform this area into a vibrant public space. We worked as part of the co design team to consult, workshop and shape ideas which would secure the site's future, enhancing accessibility and celebrating Lancaster's heritage.
